This unique ethnographic study examines the role that fashion plays in the production of modern Indian luxury aesthetics. Tracking Indian luxury fashion from its production in rural craft workshops through the upmarket design studios to fashion Soir # 233; es, Kuldova explores the relationship of the Indian luxury fashion market for the production of thousands of artisans across India, revealing a complex system of hierarchy and exploitation .In recent years, modern Indian design has dismissed the impact of the West and became a rich heritage of luxury Maharajas, the Gulf monarchies and the Mughal Empire. Luxury Indian Fashion argues that the desire for luxury aesthetics has become a significant force in an attempt to define the modern Indian society. From the cultivation of erotic capital in the dress business women to the discussion of masculinity and muscular neo-ladies to step funeral designer, the Luxury Indian fashion analyzes production, consumption, and the aesthetics of luxury and power in India.Luxury Indian fashion is essential reading for students of fashion history and theory , anthropology and visual culture.
